Title: hand held vacuum cleaner
Post by: tomatoada on December 26, 2009, 14:52:35
Has anyone got one of these and would they recommend it?   I am thinking of getting one.

I got one free some years ago from collecting tokens, I forget what for now.

To be honest I forget that I have got it and either sweep up anything that has been dropped with a little dustpan and brush or get the main vacuum cleaner out.

They are fine for picking up a  few crumbs like a crushed biscuits on a carpet but do remember to empty it straight away you will find out why if you don't....

I wouldn't bother to get another.

I got a slow cooker the other week. Now that was a good buy.

I agree, not worth the space, although I do keep mine in the campervan in case of spillages like salt or sugar thats difficult to get up off the carpet.

So! Not so good as I thought they might be.  Thanks for replies.
I have a slow cooker but only cook a whole chicken in it (super), or a beef stew.  Would be interested in some other recipes.
